Chapter 49: Tracing the Trace
"Are you wandering the world? Do you want to hoe the strong and help the weak, take me with you. When the eldest lady on the side heard that the two decided to investigate the matter, an unstoppable yearning suddenly appeared in her eyes.
Realizing that there were still ordinary people present, the pride of the two suddenly subdued.
"Ahem, little porcelain, have you read too many novels. Our sister and brother were just deceived and unwilling, so they wanted to go to the money village to ask. Hua Qing'er explained to Xia Ci seriously.
"It's not early, and it's not a short journey back from here, Miss Xia Ci, I'm leaving."
Xia Ci wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Qingya, put the horse's reins back into Xia Ci's hand, and Qingya and the two quickly walked away, and between a few figures, the two had already walked away.
"Hmph, I also said that I don't know martial arts, this is faster than flying, don't think that you have the guts, Miss Ben is in charge of this matter." Seeing the figures of the two disappearing, Xia Ci also immediately turned over and got on the horse, and with a soft shout, the handsome white horse carried her forward quickly.
Tianbao Qian Zhuang is the official financial institution set up by the imperial court in various counties and counties, mainly undertaking the exchange between some cash and silver bills, the storage of silver money, and some lending business to the people. Because of the official guarantee, business is still booming on weekdays.
On this day, Baoqian Zhuang has two branches in Qiantang County, one south and one north, which is convenient for the people's itinerary.
Tianbao money village in the north of the city.
After seeing off the last guest, the man Chu Sanhu straightened his waist tiredly, stretched his arms widely, and stretched his waist greatly.
"Ouch, why have these people been exchanging money lately, and they are always scattered a few taels or taels, but I'm tired to death."
Walking further in, the shopkeeper of the money village, Boss Wang, was lying on the table, with an abacus in his left hand and a pen in his right hand.
At this time, two people came to Qianzhuang, a man and a woman, who looked like the sons and daughters of a big family, and they were Qingya and Qing'er.
"Two, please."
The guy who had just rested saw someone coming, and immediately got up to greet him.
"I wonder if you two are saving money or withdrawing money?" The guy greeted warmly.
"Neither, man, please exchange these twenty silver tickets for a tael of silver." Qingya took out a small stack of silver tickets from his bosom as he spoke.
"Ah......h
Seeing that he had come to exchange cash again, the man's face showed a sad look, and he turned around, looked at the shopkeeper helplessly, and asked what he meant.
"Oh, it's difficult?"
Qingya raised her eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a sly smile, that appearance was exactly the same as Liu Bailu.
"Since the shopkeeper is inconvenient, let's change it next time, but can the shopkeeper tell us the reason?"
The two walked inside while talking, and when they came to the counter, the guy moved two chairs very well and placed them beside them.
"Thank you Miss Gongzi for your understanding, don't hide it from the two of you, now this money village is in short supply, I'm afraid it won't be long before it will close the door." The shopkeeper put down his abacus and pen and began to complain about the bitterness.
"The two of them looked at the noodles, it should be the first time to come to Qiantang County. This Tianbao Money Village was originally set up by the imperial court, and there were two places in this Qiantang, which could have completely coped with the gold and silver exchanges of the people in the city.
It's just that a few months ago, as if the people here had made a fortune, from time to time they would come over with a few silver tickets to exchange for silver.
Because the amount is not large, there is no pressure at first. But then more and more people exchanged cash, and I took a few looks, good guys, all of them were heavy silver tickets.
Although it is a heavy number, every silver ticket is real, and there is no way, only to exchange it for them. After a long time, the cash in the inventory was almost replaced by them. Now the only way to do this is to let them change it next time, and wait for the cash to be distributed from above. ”
"I see."
Qingya looked at the mountain of silver tickets on the counter and looked at the shopkeeper sympathetically.
Qianzhuang is facing a deficit, and the cash in the hands of the people should be almost looted, it seems that this Desolate Fire Sect has run all over the villages and towns in Qiantang County, and now come to the county seat to collect the net.
"Qingya, it seems that we are late, they are almost successful." Hua Qing'er frowned, a worried expression.
"Looks like we're going to have to hurry. Shopkeeper, can you tell me who has recently exchanged the most money and has the largest face value?" Qingya tentatively searched for some clues.
At this time, the shopkeeper suddenly stood up, came to the two of them, and was about to kneel.
Qingya quickly helped him, but who knew that the weight of the king's shopkeeper was far beyond Qingya's expectations, and he almost pulled Qingya to the ground together.
After helping him up, Qingya wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead and said, "Shopkeeper, why do you make this big gift?" ”
"The two of you are determined to be an extraordinary person, I am here to dare to ask the two to help save the people of Qiantang County from fire and water, if you can stop this conspiracy in time, the cash that was exchanged before, I will not chase a penny from Tianbao Qianzhuang." The shopkeeper looked fat, but he didn't expect to have such courage.
Is this the confidence to have the support of the imperial court, it is really rich.
"The identities of everyone I will exchange cash for in the future are recorded in these days, and the one with the most contacts is in Yingyue Tower."
Yingyue Tower, in fact, is a boat workshop, there are dozens of large and small painting boats on the beautiful West Lake, this Yingyue Tower, is one of them.
A place like this, where casinos and green buildings abound, is mixed and lacks supervision, but it is really a good place to sell stolen goods.
The two looked at each other and nodded heartily. Tonight, I'm going to break into this moon building.
"Thank you to the shopkeeper for telling me, and I will leave Qiantang after making a decision to repay Qiantang." After speaking, the two left the money village quickly.
Seeing Qingya and Hua Qing'er leave, the shopkeeper Wang was expecting them to understand this matter, and heard a complaint from afar.
"I'm so angry, I dare to cheat Miss Ben's money, and when I catch you, I have to beat you to a hundred boards. Lao Wang, you come out for me. ”
As soon as he heard this, Boss Wang ran out to greet him, only to see Xia Ci, who was gloomy outside, riding a white horse and coming to the door of Qianzhuang.
"Hey, my aunt and grandmother, how can you join in the excitement of those cultists, how much money did you change this time."
"No, see for yourself." Xia Ci's eyes widened, making herself look fierce, but she didn't have a fierce look at all, so she tried to widen her eyes a little more.
Looking at the thick stack of silver tickets thrown on the ground by Xia Ci, Shopkeeper Wang sighed again: "Alas, I hope those two can really solve this trouble." ”
"Lao Wang, did two people come to ask you about these silver tickets just now, a man and a woman, who look very strong in martial arts."
"As soon as they left, you came, Miss. I told them about it, and then they went to Yingyue Tower to investigate. ”
The shopkeeper of the king was stunned, and was accidentally tricked by Xia Ci, and when he reacted, he could only hear the sound of "da-da-da" horses' hooves and walked away.
"Miss, that place is in chaos, you can't go. Hey, my aunt. No, I'll have to report this to the lord of the city. ”
